Efficient project management with roadmap and hierarchy features
I use Broadcom Clarity for end-to-end project and program portfolio management Every customer has achieved a return on investment within the first six months of implementation with Broadcom Clarity. The most valuable features of Broadcom Clarity are the roadmap feature and the hierarchy feature,…

Good reporting, quick configurations, and helpful support
It's a cloud-based setup, so there's no challenge in getting everything up and running. The downtime should be minimal. I'd rate the process nine out of ten in terms of ease of deployment. There is a three-month implementation exercise that we control. We have five people who were part of the implementation and maintenance process. They are admins and web developers.

Quotes from Members

We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use. Here are some excerpts of what they said:
 

Pros

"The near-immediate benefit was having all projects in one place."
"The new UI makes it easier for people to go in there and know what to do. To train people, it's faster, more intuitive."
"Demand, Resource, Project Portfolio Management, for my business consulting services, PMO services to other clients."
"Absolutely, the most active community I have ever been on."
"Overall budgeting is probably the best use of Clarity for us, because we can see how much we are allowed to spend, how much we have spent, and then how much is left over."
"Right now, it is the project management module; it is allowing us to keep track of what our projects are doing, and the idea module, what projects are coming into the pipeline."
"The support is excellent and very easy to work with."
"Broadcom Clarity PPM is better than Planisware because they have the multi-road mapping feature."
"The reporting part is very good."
 

Cons

"The install packages are the worst I’ve ever seen."
"I struggle also from a maintenance and support perspective. Now, I am going to be maintaining both new UX screens, which the blueprints make look like it is going to be really easy, but we would still have to be maintaining new UX screens as well as classic views for those functionalities that are not yet available in the new UX."
"One of the major pain points for me when it comes to Broadcom Clarity PPM is the new UI."
"The few times that we've tried putting it in production, it hasn't been that stable."
"they could improve the mobile app. I think right now it only offers time sheet. If they can integrate a lot of other components into it I think that would be helpful for the users."
"They need to improve its mobile compatibility."
"Reporting could be improved. Both the user interface and administration of Jaspersoft is very confusing and not user-friendly."
"Improvement to the project hopper would be great. It's a feature that we could really benefit from."
"Some of the reports could be automated."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"There are different licensing models with Broadcom Clarity PPM. With the software as a service model, you pay as you go, and if you are on-premises, you can buy a perpetual license and an annual fee for maintenance."
"The subscription is not that expensive."
"The price of Broadcom Clarity PPM is reasonable. My customers pay a license to use this solution on an annual basis."
"Broadcom Clarity PPM costs us $500K, and that's only for the installation and kick off within the first year. For each succeeding year, it could cost $200K."
"The price point of Broadcom Clarity PPM is less than Planisware. If a customer comes to me, and the cost is the main parameter for the selection of a tool, then I'll recommend Broadcom because cost-wise, they are less than other solutions."
"Cost-wise, the tool is very expensive and some tools might be able to cater to 80% of the functionality provided by Broadcom Clarity PPM but are not as expensive."
"Pricing is flexible, depending on the customer and the region."
"It is hard for them to say, "I have a person on my team who is going to be available, I am going to move that task to them". That requires a project management license, it doesn't require a team member license, so the licensing model does not sometimes support the way the business world is going."
